About our Mexican street food in Loyterton
One Mexican trader covers several diets: there are vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas. That helps organisers balance the line-up. It works well for hospitality and crew areas and seasonal and night markets, serving vegan tacos, tacos and burrito bowls.
At a field event near Loyterton, power and water may be limited; tell us what’s available and we’ll plan around it. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Common questions in Loyterton
Is it possible to have you in Doddington Place Gardens?
It depends on the park’s owner, who would need to agree to a catering vehicle on site. Ask them first; if they say yes, we will send what they need from us.
Do you come to events in the Kent Downs National Landscape?
Yes, though some venues in protected landscapes have extra rules; ask your venue. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
Can you serve alcohol at our event?
It depends on the event’s licence. Tell us whether the event has a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice.
Can you handle a lunchtime rush?
We plan stock and service around your expected numbers.
Can you keep it mild?
We can keep it mild, with hotter salsas on the side for anyone who wants more heat.
Can you plan for allergies?
Our menus are planned with allergies in mind, nut allergies included, with allergen information for every dish. We plan carefully and keep options separate, though we can’t promise a dish is allergen-free. Guests with severe allergies should talk to us before the event.
Do you have dairy-free options?
Yes, we can. Let us know your dairy-free numbers, and we’ll include them in the plan.
How many guests can you serve?
Truck and trailer service typically suits around 50 to 400 guests. Smaller parties are quoted case by case, and festivals can be larger. Send us your numbers and we will advise.
Working with your venue
Planners and coordinators can contact us directly, and we’ll keep everyone informed on the day.
For larger events, we plan serving points around your timings, so guests are looked after quickly. Let us know how long the break is.
How it compares
Not every trader covers vegans and coeliacs. We can serve vegan fillings and corn tortillas. Access, parking and the distance to your venue can affect the price, so tell us about the venue when you ask for a quote. The full price is confirmed in your quote.
What you get with us
- Book food, drinks or both
- A plan agreed before the day
- Quoted for your event
- A menu built around your guests
See our pricing or the cost guide.
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: our guide to how many tacos per person helps. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label dishes for guests with allergies.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. See our margarita bar guide.
The process
A typical event goes like this: we park up and get ready, service opens at the agreed time, and your guests are served fresh until service ends. At midsummer, events in Loyterton stay light until about 9:15pm, which helps evening trading. Winter markets, dark by about 3:50pm, need a well-lit pitch.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree what we will serve and where.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- We are ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We serve, then clear the pitch at the end.
How to prepare
- Let us know the timings for the day
- Arrange somewhere covered for guests to eat
- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to park
How to get a price
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many guests, along with any dietary needs, and we will reply with a menu suggestion and a quote. To get started, send a quick message through our quote form.

Prices and what affects them
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Guest numbers
- Whether you need disposables
- Timings and hours
- Your choice of food and drinks
Cost depends on guest numbers, the menu and the length of service, along with extras and where your event is. Every event gets its own quote.
Getting an accurate quote
A few details help us give you an accurate quote. Here’s what’s useful:
- Your menu ideas
- The date and time of the event
- Expected numbers
- Access for the truck or trailer, including gates and ground
We need only a few details to quote: the date, where the event is, how many guests and any dietary needs. To send them, use our quote form.
Planning the serving area
Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so where we park matters. Here’s what we look for:
- A level pitch on firm ground
- A pitch big enough for the truck or trailer and a queue
- A pitch with space around it, away from tents and structures
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and the access, and we’ll advise.
